I built VANT because fashion discovery is fragmented. You see something you like, but finding the brand, the piece, or where to buy it can be surprisingly difficult. With VANT you can photograph a fashion piece and VANT will identify it and find where it’s available.

VANT brings that discovery into one place.

The Mall is a curated fashion destination with 1600+ brands. You can browse and search across fashion, accessories, watches, jewelry, home and tech, and save the brands and pieces you want to keep exploring. You can build your own Mall (brand selection) in your pocket so the clutter or stores you don''t care about are not there. The search bar is very intuitive, you can search by activity (wedding, party, beach) Sport (tennis, golf, polo, ski) or keywords (baby, jeans, gifts) and VANT will show only the stores you are actually looking for.

LENS lets you photograph something you see and discover what it is, who makes it, and where you can find it.

The Wardrobe is your personal collection, where you can save discoveries and organize pieces from the pictures you took or form any website.

VANT also includes a personal style Concierge for recommendations and fashion questions in general.

The EDIT section is our magazine, where we'll be posting recommendations, new collections. fashion tips and facts with clickable links to find the pieces and discover more.

The idea is simple: discover what you love, organize your taste, and keep everything in one place.

VANT is currently available on iPhone, and I’m looking for feedback on the experience, especially the Mall and LENS.

I built VANT because I wanted a simpler way to find the fashion pieces I see and like but don't know how to find again.

VANT is a fashion discovery app for iPhone. You can photograph a fashion piece and use VANT to identify it and find where it’s available. You can also explore brands, save pieces you like to your Wardrobe, and build your own collection of discoveries.

I’d love feedback on the product, especially the discovery experience and the camera feature.
